Actin-Binding Proteins in Nerve Cell Growth Cones

The motility of the growth cone, an intracellular apparatus located at the tip of the axon in developing neurons, is thought to govern axonal path-finding and the construction of neuronal networks. Growth cones contain an actin-rich cytoskeleton, and their dynamics are regulated by a wide variety of...
